It’s pedaling, which is good for your heart and your body. It’s also about choosing a sustainable journey that respects others.

France, the ideal country to travel by bike
The country of the Tour de France has established itself as the world’s second most popular destination for cycling tourism, just behind Germany. This type of itinerant vacation has exploded and the number of people traveling by bicycle is growing by about 20% a year (source: Vélo et Territoire).
France is a playground unique in the world, with an exceptional geographical diversity for such a large territory, between rivers, mountains and more than 2,000 km of coastline.
In addition to the great mountain passes made famous by the Tour de France, France now has 20,000 km of cycle paths and greenways. Cycle tourism is a real priority for the authorities, which are encouraging the development of infrastructures and services to offer the best possible welcome to cyclists.
